Infernal Stronghold - Godless Noise
 |
I'm so excited about Infernal Stronghold, you don't even know. Maybe you'll know a little after you read this, but you won't know completely. You won't know how stuck they've remained on my iPod when it's otherwise a sieve for bands. You won't know how great it is for drowning out my roommate's voice. I put it on, and wood and shrapnel fill my ears. My mind never fails to reel. Each time I think, this is sooo good. How can a bunch of kids — supposedly none are older than 21 — be so good? They sound like the unholy offspring of Repulsion and Mayhem. "I swallow your faith and regurgitate distortion." That needs to be huge letters on the back of a t-shirt. This — 26 minutes of face-melting, feed-backing, fick-stucking filth — needs to be huge, period. Infernal Stronghold want to kill you, your god, and your godforsaken world. Now show them some love.

Yes, excellent album. I recently reviewed it. I was surprised by how wild their sound is. And apparently by their lack of black metal pretension too. I think they enjoyed the fact that I liked the album, but disliked the fact that I focused too much on their lack of bm garment...just trying to make a point jeez...
once again....find a new band with invisible oranges!!! at least once a month you point out some band i never would have heard of otherwise and rock my ears.
thanks again.
We really appreciate your reviews guys, especially Cosmos Lee man, that shit is honest! And the jabs at our unforest-like presentation, haha!
{Just some people go as far to say we appear unmetal. This is fucking perplexing, because all of us have been metalheads since 12 or so, and in said photo we're wearing a black sab, mayhem, destruction, etc., shirt. And of course 2 of us refuse to cut our long hair.}
Quite excellent! Their MyFace page says, "like Fenriz' head on Stallone's body." Quite apt.
Happy Thanksgiving, Cosmo.
Thanks, Jason.
This band's look fits its music. Most bands who do the corpsepaint thing are faking the funk. Only a select few have the total package of image and sound.
i don't normally dig black metal. but their mixture of black and crust is phenomenal. i love their split with gatt (a slower, less talented attempt at the same sound) even better. these kids are on to something.
Wow, I think I need to pick this up. 2009 has been an expensive year for metal, and I couldn't be more happy.
*Awesome* stuff. Thanks again, Cosmo.
For once, some good music on this blog.
